Rat, Wedding, Bow

It has been hypothesised that 'Rat' may refer to either the non-canonical The Giant Rat of Sumatra, which is alluded to by Holmes in The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire. Alternately, it may refer to The Boscombe Valley Mystery in which the victim's last words were something about "...a rat".

Freaking out at the prospect that 'bow' might refer to His Last Bow, i.e. the story in which Holmes RETIRES from detective work to be a BEEKEEPER!

OMFG!
THE END IS NIGH! MOFFAT IS PLANNING TO END SHERLOCK AFTER THREE SEASONS!

*hem*

In other news, 'wedding' may refer to Watson's marriage to Miss Mary Morstan or The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor, in which a bride goes missing on the day of her wedding.
